Hedges is batting fifth and catching Thursday against the Diamondbacks, Jack Magruder of FanRagSports.com reports.
The backstop received a breather Wednesday in favor of Luis Torrens. Hedges resurfaces Thursday to catch Clayton Richard. He's batting only .211/.261/.439 with a .296 wOBA in 185 plate appearances, but his 11 home runs help him stand out as at least a top No. 2 catcher in a volatile player pool.
